Why is my left ovary causing pain?
It's actually quite common to have a dominant follicle during your menstrual cycle. This follicle is basically a fluid-filled sac that contains an egg, and it's necessary for ovulation to occur. Sometimes, a dominant follicle can cause discomfort or pain due to its size or the pressure it puts on surrounding tissues. In most cases, this pain is temporary and should resolve on its own as the follicle either releases the egg or shrinks in size. To help manage the pain, you can try using a heating pad, taking over-the-counter pain medication, and getting plenty of rest. However, if the pain persists or becomes severe, it's important to follow up with your gynecologist for further evaluation and management.

Is my labia shape normal post-sex injury?
It's actually quite common for the shape to appear different during the healing process. Your body is working to repair itself, so a temporary change in shape is normal. As for concerns about complications during sex after marriage, it's important to allow enough time for complete healing before engaging in any sexual activity. I recommend keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose clothing, and avoiding any harsh soaps or products that could irritate the area. If you notice any signs of infection, such as increased pain, redness, or discharge, it's best to see a gynecologist for further evaluation.

Why do I have excessive watery discharge during intercourse?
Vaginal discharge during sex is a common concern and sometimes it is due to changes in hormone levels, which are part of the body's natural processes. A lack of vaginal protection means discharges can also result in fertility concerns. If you still want solutions, closely monitor your cycle and confer any symptoms with your gynecologist. They may need to check out you through a series of evaluations and prescribe the right course of action after the diagnosis of the cause of the issue.

Why no periods, negative pregnancy test, brown discharge?
It's understandable to be concerned about changes in your menstrual cycle. A missed period, followed by brown discharge, might indicate hormonal fluctuations, stress, or early signs of menstruation. Since your pregnancy test was negative, it's possible that your body is adjusting. However, if the discharge persists or if you experience pain or unusual symptoms, I recommend consulting a gynecologist. They can provide a thorough evaluation and proper guidance tailored to your situation.
